On today’s Complicated Conversation we are chatting with Tori Whitaker, the bestselling author of Millicent Glenn's Last Wish, about her latest novel, A Matter of Happiness, a bittersweet novel about family, hard truths, and self-discovery.Tori explains the kernel of the idea of this novel; the two women at the center of the story – both complicated, intensely independent, separated by generations but connected by family and a cherished heirloom; the universal lessons to be learned about women choosing what they want; the fascination of intergenerational stories; Tori’s path to publication and her own second act; the incredible amount of research she did to make her writing so authentic; why she loves a dual timeline, and of course her astrological sign!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
